The American Society of Ag Consultants is an organization whose success depends largely on the voluntary contributions of time and talents by its members. Members of our Board of Directors, Officers and Committees all volunteer time throughout the year to make this organization effective. As with any such organization, we depend on all members to contribute to have the most success. We have several opportunities for you to contribute your time and talents to ASAC. Most of these roles are a relatively ‘light lift’ requiring only an hour or two each month (or less). Please see the list of committees and vacant chair positions that are available. Please consider joining at least one committee, and even chairing a committee that’s in need of a chairperson. Please reach out to me at President@AgConsultants.org or to Jean Merry, Executive Director, at EVP@AgConsultants.org to join or for more information on any of the vacancies.
